The setup worked well for our group. Kitchen was functional for fixing meals together. We brought a deep-dish pie pan, Pyrex cake pans, individual pizza pans, rolling pin, and wooden spoon. (We asked the host about available pans/utensils, so we knew what we needed to bring for our menus. Kitchen tools/utensils are adequate for basics, but not everything we needed.) There were ample coffee cups, wine glasses, large plates, flatware, and basic stove cookware. We didn't use any of the small appliances (toaster, griddle, crock pot). It was unseasonably warm, so it was a challenge cooling off without air conditioning, but we managed. After dusk, the screens didn't keep bugs out, so we didn't play any games. The wind and fire risk didn't allow for having a fire pit outside. We adapted and instead had conversations in the living room with just a few low lights on. The property is clean & comfortable and we liked it. Only drawbacks were the screens not keeping bugs out, no light over the large table, and needing to bring or own pyrex pans for breakfast casseroles/cinnamon rolls. We LOVED the porch with the excellent breezes and views of the lake. The only negative feedback is the need for better screens so the windows can be open at night and broom/dustpan for tidying up. (We like to clean up after ourselves, but did not find adequate cleaning supplies to take care of basics.) The host was very responsive to all our questions.
